I am getting my first axolotls in a few months, right now they are just wee little eggs! I am super excited but I would like to know everything there is to know about these guys.
I have done a good amount of research, but I figured asking people who already have some would be a good Idea too.
I bought a 55 gallon tank for them, and am currently looking for a good substrate. I am going to try sand, I've used it before in my fish tank and I LOVE how it looks. They will be set up in my room which is the basement, so they should be at a cooler temp even if it gets warm.
I have no lights for the tank, and I bought a whisper filter from tetra, after I got home I read up and it said canister filters are the best? Any opinions?
Also is the 55 suffcient size for them? or how many can I fit in the 55? Cause if I can fit more I would love to get another one!
I just want to know everyones opinions on these guys. from normal behaviors to regular eating habits. ANYTHING.
Like I said I am a beginner at these guys and I want to be prepared.
Thanks in advanced!
